New Mexico has a voter registration crisis. There are between 250,000 and 300,000 eligible but not-yet-registered voters in New Mexico.

Secretary of State Dianna Duran is responsible for registering these voters. Instead of addressing the crisis and registering more eligible voters, however, she has made it more difficult to vote. Duran recently ran out of voter registration cards for some of New Mexico's most populous counties and is now trying to wrongly purge over 177,000 people from New Mexico's voter files. This is the story of one of those voters.
